Love love! My favorite bar in the city. Best staff, vibe, food, drinks. Disappointed (and very surprised) to see the negative reviews, to be honest.
Great service. Good coffee. Wasn't able to get just a cup. They charge $13 for a carafe. Nice looking place!
I looove the Streetbar! It is such a warm & friendly place, filled with attractive men (I just might meet my future husband- or playmate- there!) Plus it has a wonderful outdoor seating area... I love going to PS, generally- it is verrry interactive! (Fun, in the sun)
My new favorite bar in Boston. Leather bound books, dim lighting, leather or velvet seating, and a great bar and wine list. The burger was phenomenal. Sounds like you may want reservations if you're not staying there, hotel guests seem to have priority but we were lucky they found room for the four of us. Chill, classic, classy, and all the adjacent adjectives. Someone said "gothic academic esthetic" and I think that sums it up nicely. Good negronis, good old fashioneds, and a large wine selection...
One of my favorite cocktail bars to come to with friends or alone. Especially before a show or my night out on the town in Boston. This is a part of a hotel. The ambiance is dim lighting and very nice. Our bartender I remember was great. Drinks were fantastic.
I love this place! The vibe is super chill, the bartenders and wait staff are exemplary, and it's such a comfortable spot. I had the burger and fries (it's in a hotel on Newbury Street so expect high prices) but it was cooked to perfection. If you can, grab one of the two tables by the window. With the passersby and The Public Gardens across the street, you can't go wrong. I enjoyed the energy of The Street Bar so much that I went twice in one week (Saturdays are busy but not too overwhelming) and I'll be back again soon!
This bar had a great gothic academic esthetic. Great drinks and the beef pigs in a blanket were really good.
Classy, bougie, swanky. This is what you get when you hit the trifecta of amazing food, hand crafted cocktail and ambiance like you're in The Great Gatsby. The Street Bar is located on the....duh...street level of the Newbury Hotel. You know things are about to get classy up in this joint when you can literally have Breakfast at Tiffany's (there's a Tiffany's store literally across the hallway). The service was prompt, precise and proper. After entering, I took a seat at the bar and immediately I was greeted by the bartender with some bar snacks. As a former bartender, I maliciously read through each individual cocktail's ingredient and decided with the Daiquiri No. 33 cocktail. It was light, refreshing but yet packs a punch. I order crab cake as a snack and it was delicious, and realized that crab cake doesn't actually need fillers. It actually taste better when you have fresh crab with a crispy crust. After gulping down my cocktail, I was greeted by their bar director Eric. Rare to find a person to be able to speak intellectually about great wine and food. The bar serves also as the hotel bar, so it can get pack quickly. As I was having my conversation with Eric, the bar filled up with eager patrons needing their rose and martini's. Before coming here, I did read a few reviews about pricing. However, you are on Newbury and you are receiving one of the best service you can get in Boston. I would say that return on investment is worth every cent. I would highly recommend coming here for lunch, dinner or even an evening drink. It certainly has the classy vibe that I'm always looking for an amazing night out.
